Cup Heats - Mixed fortunes |
|
|
There were mixed fortunes for HMAC's senior teams in the Gold & Jubilee Cup heats at Battersea today. The men qualified easily for the semi-finals, placing runners-up to Woodford Green & EL, with only pole vaulter Kevin Tufton claiming first place points. But the women drew tough opposition and could do no better than fourth. Debbie Sullivan (3000m) and Kate Brewington (100m hurdles) were victorious. Meanwhile, a busy weekend saw both McDonald's young Athletes league teams in action. The newly promoted ladies were second in their Premier division match at Crystal Palace - the boys result is awaited. |

Southern Women place second - but
go top |
|
|
In a top of the table clash at Guildford today Havering Mayesbrook’s Southern Women’s team just lost out to Windsor S, E& H in a three-way fight. But as league positions are based on event points, rather than match points, HMAC should tonight find themselves on the top of the Division One table, as Windsor's three point winning margin was not enough to bridge the 9 point HMAC lead after the first round. |
Lauren Deadman - 3000m PB |

Mayesbrook’s British League team started their 2001 campaign with sixth
place of the eight clubs at a Crawley on Saturday, after late withdrawals
from injuries to major point scorers Phil Sadler and Brett Heath. But
with some new recruits and the return from injuries of some old
campaigners they put up a good performance.
